Coelho Gets Value from Mazerolle

Ollie Garland

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

The pot stood around 200,000 in a blind versus blind confrontation with two players looking at a board of 6♥K♠9♥Q♦.

Hugues Mazerolle, in the small blind, bet out 175,000. Diogo Coelho, in the big blind, made the call.

The 3♦ river saw Mazerolle size down with a bet of 100,000. Coelho tanked before producing a raise to 480,000. Mazerolle made a reluctant call. Coelho rolled over K♥8♦ for top pair, winning him this pot.

Kirill Aleksandrov Eliminated in 22nd Place ($13,290); Aleksandr Burov Eliminated in 23rd Place ($13,290)

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Kirill Aleksandrov moved all in from early position for roughly 500,000 with Kostadin Kostadinov making the call from the button. Aleksandr Burov had just one big blind and called for his tournament life from the small blind.

Aleksandr Burov: Q♦Q♣ All in
Kirill Aleksandrov: 9♠9♥ All in
Kostadin Kostadinov: 8♣8♥

Kostadinov had a chance to send two players to the rail if he could spike an eight. The flop of 8♦7♥7♣ gave Kostadinov a full house and put him firmly in the lead. However, the Q♠ on the turn propelled Burov into the lead with a higher boat, and he could only lose to a one-outer on the river. The dealer put out the 8♠ on the river to give Kostadinov the winner with quad eights and bust both Aleksandrov and Burov.
